~Corrections~

Letters stuck to rubber, falling down upon the floor.
I turn my pencile up-side-down... and hope for God to give me more.

there...
all my mistakes are gone. all the poetry that was so sleazy...
so I turn my pencil right side up...
don't you wish life was as easy?

~Empty Hand~

I hadn't seen you in forever.
And I've forgotten your face.
Sun drenched happiness is my only memory;
as my heart takes the time to unlace.

I raise my hand at the auction.
And I count every lost penny.
Too bad the memories can't flood in.
Because, well... there's not very many.

And I can't help but feel my empty hand.
Can you guess what's running through it?
Same as with yours It's sand.
As my bitterest of tears seem to fall,
and hit hard when they land.

(for Andrew)

~Bless Me~

I've got you in a choke hold...
or is it you who has me?
My fury comes from the revenge of my thoughts,
the lies, and distrust.
Let me gain your notice!
I won't let go until you bless me.
Touch my hip, and shatter my bone...
but I still won't let go.
I won't let go until you bless me.

(Sometimes it feels like instead of fighting for a blessing, I am clinging during my wrestling just to keep standing. I guess I'm stubborn. Maybe more then I should be)
